Step 12: Logging your first sound
Go through each hour of recordings and look for calls made by the species of
interest (i.e. blue whale A, B and D calls)
We will be binning call types by the hour
When you find your first call we you click on the corresponding drop down for
group and species
Then check off the first call of that type you have seen in that hour
Click on the call and then click on “pick start”
*In the comments please note the quality of the call (1-3) followed by the
quality of the recordings (G or B). PLEASE SEPARATE USING A “,” (comma)
1=low SNR (signal to noise ratio)
2=medium SNR
3=high SNR
G=good and can use auto-detector
B=bad and cannot use auto-detector
